were but a boy but you were a serious and sedate lad aye aye ; i remember well and on the mohawk i sent you fifty indians and you wrote me that they set up such a yell that they frightened the british horse and they ran one way and the indians another no person who witnessed this inter view will ever forget it ; many an honest tear was shed on the occasion the young men retired at a little distance while the venerable soldiers were indul ging recollections and were embracing each other again and again ; and the sur rounding youth silently dropt the tear ihey could no longer restrain such sin cere such honest feelings were never more plainly or truly expressed the sudden change of the countenance ofthe marquis plainly evinced the emotions he endeavored to suppress he manfully supported this truly trying situation for some time when a revolutionary story from the venerable willet recalled cir cumstances long passed : the incident the friend alluded to made the mai quis sigh ; and his swelling heart was relieved when he burst into tears the sympa thetic feelings extended to all present ; and even the hardy tar rubbed away the tear he could no longer restrain on thusday thc 19th ult the gentle men of the bar of the city of new york to the number of about 300 received gen la fayette in the common pleas room of the city hall ; when mr hoffman their chairman addressed the general in

ladies many of whom stepped forward and gave the general their hands as he passed along the general enthusiasm also extended to the children of all ages ; the name of the hero continually reverberated from their lips giving to fayette a heart-appealing evidence that his memory has been hal lowed at every family altar and the fu ture generations as well as this will be familar wilh his name ; and echo his prai ses after his return to the city hotel he had the extraordinary condescension and good feeling to come out and shake hands with 6 or 700 american youth the future conservatories of his fame this circumstance has planted in the minds of these little ones the strongest affection for the man which will go with them thro life and endure till its close such is a taint outline of the proceed ings of a day which shines proudly in the annals of our country â€” proceedings which were more brilliant than any that have ever been witnessed in america and which will rarely if ever be equalled it was a proud day for the cause of en lightened and liberal principles as to tlie pageant we should suppose from the accounts then published that the landing of the king of england at leith in 1 822 would form the nearest parallel bul the occasion and he circumstances were widely different no fulsome adulation was here extorted by the power or splcn dor of royalty but every feeling and
